I also have a master list of books to read over the following year that I compiled from several greatest lists:

Pulitzer PrizePen/FaulknerOprah's Book List1,000 Books to Read Before You DieNational Book AwardNobel Prize for Literature

My goal is to read a combination of fifty books from those lists over the year. I have started my list but have not nailed down the fifty books yet.;)Check out that list here! The highlighted books on the list I am reading along with APA. She has her own 50 book list that you can find on her blog. Want to join along with us?

If it isn't already on the list, you MUST read The Time Traveller's Wife, by Audrey Niffenegger. Easily in my top 10 books ever, maybe even top 5. Be sure to read it before the movie comes out - that's sure to destroy it.

WOW! Look at you go already this new year! I'm moving along well, too, but taking some time to read The Last Report on the Miracle at Little No Horse by Louise Erdrich. It's lenghty, but I'm enjoying it, kind of reminds me more of one of those epics or sagas, something lots of mod books aren't anymore as they're told rather quickly. Fun, fun!

I like Wally Lamb, but sometimes B. Kingsolver is difficult for me to get through, never finished one yet! I am afraid I tend to read my favorites over and over. Brothers Karamazov, Moby Dick and anything by Thomas Hardy!Must get out of that rut!Cheers,Dionne

Ok, so I just finished Eat, Pray, Love (took me a long time to finish that one...) But now I need another book. What is your current favorite absolute must-read book? Sadly, when I can't decide, I reach for an old favorite. But how many times can I read Jude the Obscure or A Tale of Two Cities?!Cheers,Dionne

About Me

I enjoy making and creating things as well as reading. I love modern fabrics and creating new things from little cut up pieces of fabric. I have been making quilts and recently discovered a love for little girl clothes. I love art,whether it is painting or textiles!
